A discussion paper on prostitution reform was released last Friday (20

MLCs rethinks position on Brothels)
Public submissions are due before March 9
th. You can find the link to the paper
here. ACL will soon have a campaign on
www.makeastand.org.au to combat any push to legalise brothels/decriminalise prostitution in the state.
